Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 is 15.9% below the 2007 sale of £133,100, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs).
